Is it me, or did the Google Keyword tool stop showing the trends chart on the keywords report screen?

It used to have a nice little bar chart showing the monthly search volumes for a given keyword. The documentation still references this coluimn, but the option to show it disappeared.

      Whew! Glad to know it's not just me!

      The "good" news is that I just found out the data is apparently still there, because if you download the table as a CSV for Excel, the individual search counts for each month is included. A minor consolation, but nice to know.

      This data is especially important if you're looking to capitalize on a new trend, so it's great that the data is still available, albeit hidden a bit.

        I just noticed this was gone today. A topical search on Google turned up this thread. That is too bad from a usability perspective. Maybe downward trend charts were putting doward pressure on Adwords bid prices but if that were true, wouldn't positive trends drive up bid prices? At least the underlying data is available for download, at least for now. Also, you can use Google trends, but it was nice to have all in one place in the Google Adwords tool.
